You may know us by our original name Bethel Evangelical Church Ripon, discover what’s in a name… please note we are not associated with the California Bethel Movement or Bethel Music.
We are a Bible-believing church made up of people of all ages. You will be given a warm welcome whether or not you are used to going to church.
With activities across the week for all ages, we get together to sing, pray, listen to a talk or to discuss what it says in the bible and socialise over a cup of coffee.
“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” The Bible: John chapter 3 verse 16
We learn more about God and His promise of eternal life in the Bible. Join us at a Sunday Service, Bible Study or investigate the life of Jesus in Christianity Explored.
Watch live
Every Sunday we go live from our service in Ripon, North Yorkshire. Join us online as we come together to worship our Saviour and gather around his word.
Or even better, we would love for you to come visit us in person! If you’re not sure what to expect read: “What does an Evangelical Church service actually look like in Ripon in 2024 at Bethel Church?”
From Sunday School to Junior Church…
“Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God”. Luke 18 vs 16
"Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, and in purity." - 1 Timothy 4:12
"As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." - Proverbs 27:17
Bible Believing?
“But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
2 Timothy 3 vs 14 -17
Grow up in every way into Him?
“And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.”
Ephesians 4 vs 11-16
